The cover of One Piece Volume 31 displays the title 'ONE PIECE' and 'Volume 31 “We are here”' in large stylized lettering. Luffy sits on a circular rug wearing his straw hat, leaning forward with wide eyes while holding a book open. Chopper in his pink hat sits beside him, also peering at the pages. Sanji lounges nearby with a cigarette, and a tall man with a topknot stands with arms crossed. Behind them looms a massive blue snake with its mouth open and a muscular warrior with wild red hair, crossed arms, and tribal accessories gripping weapons. The background features an old map of the seas with the Jump Comics logo and author credit 'Eiichiro Oda'.

The page opens with vertical text reading THE STORY OF ONE PIECE. A dense narrative recap fills the left column: In the Great Pirate Era, the legendary Pirate King Gol D. Roger left behind the ultimate treasure, the One Piece. Countless pirates set sail in pursuit. Luffy, dreaming of becoming Pirate King, sails the seas aboard the Thousand Sunny with his crew. They reach Skypiea, the floating island ruled by the self-proclaimed God Enel. The Straw Hats clash with Enel’s forces and the Shandia warriors. Enel’s true goal is revealed as he prepares to destroy Skypiea with his lightning powers. The narration ends noting Luffy’s determination to stop him. On the right, character profiles appear under headings 神の軍団 (God’s Army), シャンディア (Shandia), and 麦わらの一味 (Straw Hat Pirates).

A massive close-up shows a camera-headed man with a cracked lens, sweat flying, shouting in panic. Text reads “200 MILLION EXTOLS PER PERSON!” and “SNAP! SNAP!”. A voice yells, “HEY YOU!

Panic erupts across Angel Island as massive lightning bolts rain down. A huge "ドーン!!!!" explosion rocks the port while people scream "わあああああ...". Signs read "White White Seas, Angel Island". Villagers flee in terror as someone shouts "THERE'S NO TIME TO WASTE!" and "GET OFF THE ISLAND!". Others yell "Flee West, everyone!", "Head to the Western beach! There's still some ships there!", "The ships at the port have been destroyed!", and "The lightning strikes are... getting bigger and bigger!". More voices cry "THROW DOWN YOUR BAGS AND RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!" and "QUICKLY, EVERYONE!" as debris flies and buildings crumble.

A young girl with a fox companion hides near ruins as lightning strikes a distant hill. A massive impact "グォン" shakes the ground. Luffy appears in extreme close-up, eyes bulging and teeth gritted, roaring "-EEELLL! ENEEEE-". Nearby, a small creature yells "That ship's moving too damn fast! Damn it...". In a vision or memory, a tall warrior statue labeled "GREAT WARRIOR KALGARA" stands among Shandian huts while a cloaked figure says "Yes..." and a voice pleads "PLEASE, LEND EVERYONE YOUR PROTECTION." Another figure shouts "Chief! Please board the ship quickly!".

Explosions continue with "オォオォ...!!!!" and "オォオォッ!!!" as lightning devastates the island. People scream "GYAAA!" and "AHHH!". A character yells "We'll be burnt to ashes if we stay here! That lightning was HUUUGE!". Nami, carrying a large weapon, shouts "G-got it! Everyone! Get to the ship! I'll catch up to Luffy and bring him back there ASAP too!" while running through the chaos. Figures flee across the ruined landscape.

Nami, sweating and determined, says "PLEASE MAKE IT IN TIME! WE NEED TO ESCAPE FROM THIS ISLAND BEFORE IT'S DESTROYED! EVEN IF IT'S TALKING ABOUT... THERE'S NO WAY HE CAN GET TO THE ENEMY FLYING HIGH IN THE SKY...!". A massive warrior with an anchor tattoo stands tall; Robin calls out "Hurry, Robin! Help me get these guys back to the ship somehow... HuhI". Onlookers react: "Weird old man!", "Mr. Swordsman.", "Wiper...", with sounds like "KENE..." and "BLINK". A small girl watches nearby.

A battered figure lies on the ground, coughing violently. "COUGH!" Nearby, another character grits their teeth and growls, "Enel...!" Explosions and impacts echo with "ドゴォォン" and "ズゴォン". In the wider scene, several figures struggle amid the ruins. One shouts, "We barely have any time! Can you walkI" Another replies, "Great, you're up!" A small observer notes, "So it's begun..." A determined girl with dark hair states, "There's nothing we can do even if we stayed here." Her companion agrees, "Let's hurry to the ship." Close-ups show tense, sweating faces. A fierce close-up of a bandaged man ends the page as a voice calls out, "Wiper."

A massive close-up shows a scarred face shouting, "WHAT A SIGHT!" In the distance, a warrior leaps with swords drawn, laughing wildly, "YAHA HAHA!" Massive explosions tear through the landscape with "ゴゴゴゴ" and "ゴゴゴ..." A solemn narration box declares, "I SWEAR UPON THE NAME OF THE GREAT WARRIOR KALGARA..." Below, a tall, tattooed warrior stands amid smoke and debris as a voice cries, "WIPER!"

Smoke and ruins fill the air as a voice whispers, "WIPER..." A large panel shows a warrior standing before a burning city with the caption, "TO LIGHT THE FLAME OF SHANDORA!" Inside a tent-like structure, figures discuss the past. One says, "Yes... And it was this which became his greatest regret..." Another asks, "Another reasonI" A seated elder explains, "Your distant ancestor... The great warrior Kalgara... Had another reason." Close-ups reveal intense expressions. A character questions, "Why he tried to recover our homelands." The elder continues, "YES... THE NAME OF THIS TRUE FRIEND OF HIS, KALGARA'S TRUE FRIEND...I" A final panel shows a wide-eyed face as the elder states, "WHO VISITED KALGARA'S HOMELANDS 400 YEARS AGO WAS..." and "LISTEN CAREFULLY. THE GREAT WARRIOR KALGARA HAD... A PERSON HE CONSIDERED A TRUE FRIEND."

A vast landscape erupts with thunderous sound effects "ゴゴゴゴォ...!!" Two radiant circles label the figures "MONTBLANC" and "NOLAND" as they stand on opposite sides of a ruined, cloud-shrouded island. Smaller panels show the destruction of buildings and the chaos below. The final wide panel shows a calm sea with narration boxes reading, "Long ago..." and "Long," as a small boat sails under a bright sky.

This is a story from roughly 400 years ago. On the Grand Line, Jaya, a sailing ship approaches the island as a strange laugh echoes across the water: "わははははははは...". The narration box states, "400 years ago, Grand Line, Jaya". Suddenly the crew panics as a massive, dark figure leaps from the jungle toward their vessel. "HE'S A MONSTER!" one sailor screams. "RUN OR YOU'LL BE KILLED!" another shouts. "IT'S THE DEMON OF SHANDORA!" cries a third. "GET BACK TO THE SHIP!" someone yells. "HE AIN'T HUMAN!" The monstrous warrior lands on the beach, blades flashing, as the terrified crew tries to flee back aboard.

The demon warrior charges the ship. "CAPTAIN! CAPTAIN! Forgive me, men!" a crewman cries as chains swing wildly. "HE'S HERE!" another screams. Massive impact SFX "ドドド" and "ブォ" shake the scene while the warrior smashes through the hull. "SWING" reads a balloon as the attacker leaps. The ship rocks violently under the assault, sailors tumbling as the dark figure lands with a huge "ドゴォォン" impact, sending debris flying. "!!!I" the remaining crew reacts in terror.

The rampage continues as the warrior cuts down everyone in his path. "MUST... ANNIHILATE THEM ALL!" he declares. Massive destruction SFX "ドン" and "ドン!!!" fill the page. The ship is reduced to wreckage; fallen sailors and broken weapons litter the sand. The warrior stands amid the ruins, blades drawn, as the last survivors lie defeated around the shattered mast and debris.

The towering warrior looms over the destruction, wild hair and feathered adornments framing his fierce grin. "EVERY-THING. LEAVE BEHIND," he growls. A small inset shows a terrified sailor gasping "GAH-". The narration box identifies him: "Shandora's Great Warrior (Shandia) Kalgara". In the background, the ruined ship smolders on the shore as his laughter echoes: "HAHAHA..." and the distant "わははははははは..." lingers over the waves.

Somewhere else on the Grand Line, a sailing ship named LVNEEL K.D. battles a fierce storm. Whirlpools churn the sea while snow falls. A crewman shouts, "Storm after storm...!...Yet still no land in sight. Whirlpools, then snow of all things!" Below deck the crew panics as the ship rocks violently. "WE ARE NOW... IN GRAVE TROUBLE... COLLAPSE The cook collapsed! R... REPORTING, ADMIRAL! OUR FOOD STORES HAVE RUN OUT AT LAST... Damn it... Is there no food left...I" The admiral stands at the railing. In the next instant he dives overboard. The crew screams, "ADMIRAL! WHAT'S GOING ON!I" as a massive splash erupts beside the hull.

The crew stares in shock at the empty deck. "WAS IT... SUICIDEI DID HE ABANDON US!I BUT THIS IS THE GRAND LINE! ADMIRAL! ADMIRAL!" One sailor points at neatly folded clothes and shoes left behind. "Are you kidding!I There's all kinds of sea monsters lurking here! S-someone dive in after him! Then why're his shoes and clothes neatly folded and lying here!I Don't be stupid! That great man's come back from 2 Grand Line voyages! Could it be... That he couldn't withstand slowly starving to death and chose death by drowning instead...I He's not coming back up...! He's mentally tougher than any of us on board!" A rope is lowered. The admiral surfaces holding a large chest. "A ropeI HuhI The thing was much nimbler than I expected... Here. Pull it up. Admiral! Y... You've returned! Of course. HuhI A chestnutI A chestnut!I"

Montblanc NolandLvneel Kingdom sailors

The admiral bursts from the water beside the ship, sending up a huge splash. The crew yells, "J-JUST WHAT IS THIS THING!I ADMIRAL!I OHHHHH! SPLASH! Did you hunt this down below the waters!I Use it for food." Montblanc Noland stands on deck, water streaming from his muscular body, gripping a massive weapon. He thinks, "Certainly dulled my reflexes... All that sitting around." The crew stares in awe. A caption box reads: "North Blue, Lvneel Kingdom Admiral of an Exploration Ship Montblanc Noland".
